Welcome to the CreativeGraces GenIndex
(formerly published as "GraceFiles" on GeoCities 1998-2005),
including the award-winning Worldwide
SHELVOCK / SHELVOKE / SHILVOCK One-Name Study (ONS). This is our UK/Irish
family history - currently more than 110 family names researched
since 1981, as well DNA
in genealogy. There are numerous local One-Name Studies (ONS) & several worldwide ONS with UK roots.
Please refer to summaries for details.
All the
information herein is the total of my personal and collaborative research,
available for free online.
In exchange, I simply ask for information in return for the benefit of all
family historians.

For genealogy, we recommend using family names only to start with (not full
names and initials).
Please consider possible spelling variants before trying
first names, locations and known events.
